Driven by the religious ideology, 21 years old Nasurullah had taken to gun after facing continuous harassment from forces.
“He was eleven when police picked him and tortured him for pelting stones,” his father, NazirAhmad Mir said.
“After facing repeated harassment, he wanted to fight for the cause and die a martyr’s death,” he said.
Nazir said Nasrullahwas humble and despite people offering him brownies, he chose to die for the cause.
“I feel proud of him. His death for the cause satisfied his conscience and he would often discuss about it with us,” he said.
Nasrullah’s younger brother Wasim said in 2013, he was detained for two months.
“He was always on police radar as he had many cases registered against him,” he said.
In 2016, Nasrullah’s fatherwas picked by forces and detained for 45 days soon after BurhanWani’s killing.
“My elder sister Rehana was getting engaged the next day when police detained my father. We had to cancel the function,” Wasimsaid.
He said only after release of his father from police captivity, Rehanagot engaged.
“We were going to fix the date of her marriage in next few days but it is not possible as of now,” Wasim said.
He said his brother could not bear police harassment and took to gun.
“After completing matriculation, my brother went for Islamic education and did a course at DarulUloomRaheemya seminary in Bandipora. He always advised me to offer prayers and be good to people,” he said.
On May 12 this year, without saying a word to anyone in family, Nasurullah left home.
“We lodged a missing complaint in police station Hajin. However, a week later his photos with gun appeared on social media sites,” Wasim said adding, “That is how we got to know that Nasrullah has joined militant ranks”.
Sources said despite having only four months experience in militancy, Nasurulla was a ‘tough take’ for forces.
The LeT militants including Nasrullahhad managed to escape massive search operation of troops in Hajin area last week, they said.
“They were trying to return to Hajin town when they were intercepted by the troops and killed in the encounter,” they said.
With killing of Nasurullah, forces believe that movement of foreign militants in the area will become difficulthttp://risingkashmir.in/news/nasrullah-had-join-militancy-after-continuous-harassment-from-forces
